Our NTL internet connection has been dreadful over the last week or two. Their service stresses me out. Booked an engineer on the phone on Saturday:
Technical support man: "So just to confirm, the engineer will attend between 12 and 6 on Wednesday. Also, please contact us if you are unable to attend the appointment; as part of NTL company policy if you miss the appointment, we will charge you £10."
Me: "That's interesting, because one of your engineers was booked to come round last week and he missed the appointment. Will you pay me £10?"
[Long silence]
Man: "I'm sorry sir?"
Me: "I booked an engineer before and he didn't turn up. Do I get £10?"
[Pause]
Man: "Please accept our apologies."
Some number crunching: since getting an NTL line, we've spent a total of £4.87 and 84 minutes on phonecalls to technical support. When their stuff breaks, we have to pay them more!

NTL are the biggest pile of crap ever. Their customer service is terrible. I don't understand how hard it is to get it to work like it should.
They make BT look like professionals. Absolutely appalling.
